I've had your problem, too--a mama deer that thinks my place is just right for raising her Bambi. I used cheap electric fence posts made out of rebar and strung up 20 pound test monofilament fishing line around the perimeter of the area I want to protect. About deer chest or neck high, as they mosey about the property, they come into contact with the line, they can't see it, it doesn't break, and they get spooked by it and go the other way. Seems to work for me(don't know that it will stop a deer that has already tasted ripe sweet corn--and it will definitely not stop a racoon or woodchuck.) But you might give this deer psy-op a try.
